Nearly an accident today!

















The last day of the year could have ended with a bang or two or three...

On the busiest road in Stavanger, an elderly man in his 80's made a wrong turn that gave those of us who witnessed it a chance to test out our brakes.

Luckily nobody was injured!

I hope everyone will have a HAPPY NEW YEAR and that you celebrate just the way you want.

Have FUN and ALL GOOD WISHES for 2018!

Kim Larsen















Kim Larsen is a Danish rock musician who, at the age of 72 , will give a concert in Stavanger next year. He is a legend in Scandinavia and obviously still has a huge following.

The banners and adverts are already out, like here at the ongoing roadworks at Madlaveien and the motorway.

Snow again.

















Snow again.
Fantastic to wake up to the white landscape.
Our dog was eager to go out for a walk.
Here is an image taken on the way to the woodland.
This is about 20 minutes from home, south of Stavanger.

SUNNY DAY!





















Today we have had a nice sunny day!
Cold, with only +2C.

Many people have left town, either to escape the rain and cold and therefore gone to Spain and other warm places. Those who don't feel any pain and cope ok with the snow, rain, cold and the dark days have perhaps gone to cottages up in the mountains.

Still some people left... but it is quiet, quiet at workplaces like here at Forus, an area where thousands of people work in different national and international offices.

It is also quiet on most roads and places away from the bigger shopping centres.

It is the time for EXTREME SALES and to change Christmas presents that did not turn out to be what was wanted.

I hope you too have some nice relaxed days.

Walking in the rain.





















Relaxing days now, but with a big family dog, we have also been out for long walks in the rain.
Today is colder. Perhaps we will have some snow again.

This is an image from an area south of Stavanger.

Relax it is Christmas time!





















Not only cars, but also this chair was parked in the city centre.
We have lazy days here at home, with a mixture of both Norwegian and British Christmas traditions .
Outside, the rain is pouring down.
I think even our dog wants to delay her long walk today.

Dressed for Christmas.





















A festive outfit seen at KARMA
I am always impressed about their unique items and the way they design their window
displays.
